the illinois Legislature had reached final

more, on the final adjournment of each

first week of January, and as 1t had no

ces and losses to which the country is sub
jected by the constantly recurring labor
disputes and are beginning to grow louder
and louder in the demand that some better
method than any now in vogue shall be
adopted TO settle these troubles. A year
ago the entire commerce of the southwest
was Frustrated for months, involving the
loss of millions of dollars, on account of the
discharge of single man in a railroad
blacksmith shop away down In Texas. The
iron industry at and east of Pittsburgh was
Frustrated fer months from possibly an
equally trivial cause. A month or two
ago the bricklayers of Chicago concluded
that they perferred Saturday to Tuesday
for pay day, and rs the bosses refused TO
make the change, quit work; and their
stoppage compelled the carpenters, plaster
ers, painters, brickmakers, stone masons

with the building industry to quit work, so

THE SPECIAL ELECTION.

The special election for county treasurer
on Tuesday last resulted In the election Of
Wright Adams, of Mission, by majority
of s65 This result was not unforeseen
Indeed, 1t was felt by all who are In a
position to know the temper of the voters
that Mr.. White, when nominated, could
not pe elected There are various causes
that combined 70 bring about this result
One of those causes was not Mr., Whites
alleged incompetency for the office. New
ertheless the contest was purely personal
one. Mr.. White has long been an active
politician. He has stood by his friends,
and fought his enemies. These personal
contests have been bitter. As conse.
quence, he has made many enemies in the
ranks of his own party,-not so much of
the men themselves whom he fought as
among their personal friends so that not
withstanding he has an army friends
behind him, his personal enemies were
the more potent, and it was simply impos
sible to bring the party rs whole to his
support II was evident from the day of
the convention thatthe nomination for this
reason was impolitic and should not have
been made, though the returns show that
the towns that not only gave him no sup
port In the convention, but opposed him
there, gave him his heaviest vote; and
Mr.. White can now find nc fault with the
opposition candidates for the nomination,
nor with the working members of his party
The character of many who pretend to be
his personal friends had also as much to do
with his defeat as can be traced 10 any one
cause. While Mr.. White can not be held
responsible for them, nevertheless they
created distrust of him, which he In no
wise would have engendered.
The lesson of the election Is that demo
cratic conventions must be more careful
In the future 10 make such nominations as
will draw TO the candidates the cordial
support of the whole party. Then the
democrats can carry elections, but not

passed off serenely until the officiating
Clergyman in his prayer omitted TO ask

to their ritual. Thus was too
much for the Captain, and no

seat he demanded that the prayer be re-

The next day we provided ourseve
with G odly array of flags and started
out to decorate that church, but found
that General Montgomery had stationed
a company Of the SSth Pa. there, with
orders to let no one inside. We were
on good terms with that regiment. II
any one from either regiment was out of
our usual time, night or day, the coun-
tersign was always three SIS. meaning

talking awhile Searg't Kinly got inside,
went quietly and quickly up the steepe
and placed a small flag oD the church
and came down. Not until we were
about to leave had anyone discovered it,
That night or the next we were ordered
out of the city by General Montgomery.
Reporting to the headquarters of Gen.
Summer we were immediately ordered to
return. Gen. Montgomery was relieved
OF his command and went to Baltimore.
We never heard of him after that.-D.
